2024 Fantasy Outlook
Engram led all tight ends in both targets (143) and catches (114) last year, which helped him to a career high for receiving yards (963) in addition to those two aforementioned categories. The 6-foot-3, 240-pound tight end is one of the fastest players at his position and excels at getting open on short routes, but he's never been much of a downfield or red-zone threat like many of the league's larger tight ends. He hasn't scored more than four touchdowns in a season since he had six as a rookie in 2017, and his 10 red-zone targets last year were tied for 14th among tight ends. On a more positive note, the butter fingers that plagued Engram in New York haven’t followed him to Jacksonville, where he's dropped only eight of 241 targets through two years (though he fumbled three times last season). The Jaguars made big changes to their receiving corps in the offseason, but it's hard to say how that affects Engram, if at all, with Gabe Davis and rookie Brian Thomas replacing Calvin Ridley and Zay Jones. A healthier year from WR Christian Kirk might have more impact on Engram's volume given that both compete for short targets, whereas Davis and Thomas figure to run a lot of deep routes. Engram probably won't score many touchdowns or match last year's volume, but he's still a good bet to rank among the TE leaders in catches and targets, making him a solid starter for PPR formats.

Week 3 status TBD
Coach Doug Pederson noted Monday that there's a degree of optimism with regard to Engram's hamstring issue, but acknowledged that it may be a "week-to-week" deal for the tight end.
ANALYSIS
Though Engram was not among the Jaguars' initial inactives prior to Sunday's loss to the Browns, he suffered a setback during warmups and was then deemed out by the team ahead of kickoff time. For now, Pederson indicated that the Jaguars will have to "see where (Engram) is this week," but at this stage the tight end's status for the next Monday's tilt against the Bills is cloudy. If Engram is unavailable in Week 3, Brenton Strange and Luke Farrell would once again be in line for added snaps.

After excelling on a one-year deal last season, Engram will return to Jacksonville on a three-year, $42 million contract. The Giants' 2017 first-round pick mostly struggled through five seasons in New York, including 17 drops his final two years. Jacksonville has been a better fit, as Engram cut his drop total to five last year while setting career highs in catches (73) and receiving yards (766). With a 4.42 wheels in a 6-foot-3, 240-pound frame, Engram is a TE/WR hybrid who fits comfortably in a Jaguars offense predicated on spread formations and speed. While Engram tied for fourth among tight ends with 98 targets in 2022, he fell outside the top 20 at the position with only nine red-zone targets, and he has yet to top four touchdowns since scoring six on a career-high 115 targets as a rookie in 2017. Engram now figures to be the third or fourth option in Jacksonville's passing game, competing for targets with WRs Christian Kirk, Calvin Ridley and Zay Jones.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Ninth-best TE in 2024 per Fowler
In his yearly survey of NFL executives, coaches and scouts, Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com has Engram ranked ninth among tight ends going into 2024.
ANALYSIS
Engram led all tight ends in the 2023 regular season with 114 receptions on 143 targets, and his 963 receiving yards ranked third among the position behind Travis Kelce and George Kittle. Engram was the second-leading receiver for Jacksonville last season, and with leading pass catcher Calvin Ridley departing for Tennessee in the offseason, the eighth-year tight end out of Ole Miss will be asked to take on a larger role in the offense and provide a safety valve for quarterback Trevor Lawrence.
